Claims questions

How soon must I report a claim?

As soon as reasonably possible. Most policies set specific reporting windows — they differ by policy and claim type, so call us immediately and we will confirm what applies to yours.

What should I include with my claim form?

Photos of the damage, any incident or police report numbers (mandatory for theft and hijacking), invoices or proof of ownership for lost items, and quotes where you already have them. More is better — it speeds up assessment.

Who deals with the insurer?

We do. Once your form and documents reach us, Westwood manages submission, assessor appointments, queries and settlement negotiation on your behalf, and keeps you informed throughout.
